Cotiimuetf from ycttcnlay.
In the spring of 1SG7 MeEsrs. Robert
Pentland, Zilek Donnell and Eraetus
S. Joslyn filed articles of incorporation
incorporating the Fir.U Congregational
church of Christ of The D.tlles. The
capital waa fised at $2000. After in
corporation the following trustees were
elected: Messrs. fi. S. Joslyn, W. P.
Abrame, II. J. Waldron, Z. F. Moody
and Zilek Donnell. Prior to the in
corporation, Messrs. 13. S. Joslon, E. S.
Penfield, Z. Donnell, W. B. Stillwell and
Rev. Thomas Condon were elected and
served ae trustees up to the time of in
corporation. E.ich year following the
first general election, the vacancies have
been filled by the following persons:
E B Comfort, Zelek Donnell, II .1 Wald
ron, Robert Pentland, Orlando Humason,
John V Booth, James B Condon, Mte
Ciimille Donnell, Joshua W French,
Samuel Brooks, William R Abrams,
Eben B McFarland, Fred A McDonald
and R A. Koscoe. The church clerks
have been as follows: E S Penfield,
Rev Thomas Condon, acting; Rev. W R
Butcher, exofticio; S L Brooks, Mrs E E
rentland, A' It Abrams, Mrs N J Simons,
O Sylvester, Mrs E J Robinson, W J
Strong, R A Roscoe, A R Thompson,
B S Huntington, and lastly Mr. A R
Thompson.
There have not been many changes in
tho list of deacons since the first organi
zation. Mr. Penfield was the recognized
deacon up to his departure from the
town. From that time Mr. E. S. Joslyn
was tho acting deacon by common con
sent, assisted by W. P. Abrame. On
January 2nd Mr. Abrams was elected to
fill the ollice, ami he and Mr. Joslyn
continued in office for seven years. On
tlio removal of Deacon Abrams to Port
land in tho lato summer of 1870, Mr.
13. P. Roberts was appointed by the
pastor. At tho first election .Mr, Roberta
waa chosen deacon and he faithfully,
zealously performed thu duties of the
deacouship until his death, which Ce
cil red February 0. 1893. February 0,
1875, Samuel L. Brooks was elected
deacon to fill the place made vacant by
tho removal of Mr. Josyln to Colorado.
The church society, at a regular annual
meeting, added two moro deacons to the
number already serving, who wore J. B.
Condon and R. S. Thompson. Their
places were only supplied through the
regular routine of office.
On December 10, 1880, an amendment
to the constitution and by-laws provided
that tho church shall elect two or more
deaconesses to hold office for one year.
It also provided that one should go
out of office each year. At an adjourned
meeting of the 21st of April, Mesdames
Camllle Donnell, Alice Abrame, Martha
A, McFarland aud Anna Pentland
Brooks were duly elected deaconeeeee,
